Listen, don't hold back! That's the power for answered prayer - Jesus' Name. It's the power that clarifies the real issue to people. Jesus is who they have to deal with. You're not deciding about my belief. You're deciding about Jesus. That's where the power is to change lives. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-personal-power/dynamite-praying-5994 2010-01-05T15:42:05-05:00 Frankly, our prayers are often so small, so predictable, so unworthy of the great God with whom we're talking. When you pray to a very big God for very big things, beginning with big things to happen in you, prepare for something explosive to happen. That will be the sound of your God blowing the lid off things! http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-mission/crossing-the-pipeline-2784 2009-09-18T14:14:05-05:00 Now that Jesus is asking you to step beyond your comfort zone into a bold and beautiful place you can only get to one way, by crossing the pipeline. You've gone as far as you can go safely. Don't miss what's on the other side. If you'll look on the other side, that's Jesus beckoning to you to come follow Him. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%204:28-30&version=NIV 2009-08-12T16:44:51-05:00 God enables Christians to be bold in their faith even in the face of opposition and criticism. Christians have nothing to fear from any power or threat. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Most-Important-Relationship/Nailing-Your-Colors-to-the-Mast-4242 2008-08-21T15:48:59-05:00 In the account of Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection that first Easter Week, we have the story of a follower of Jesus who knew all about lowering his colors when it might cost you to fly them. His name was Joseph - known by the town he was from, Arimathea. Apparently, he saw the crucifixion of Jesus - and then, something happened.
